Joey Mercury has been sent to drug rehab effective immediately and he will be out of action indefinitely. Besides all the heat Melina and Johnny Nitro have, that was one of the reasons as to why MNM split up the way they did. Also, Mercury was supposedly the "glue" of the team, and basically the point man in regards to laying out most of their matches.

Another possible culprit of WWE's drug testing procedures is none other than Chris Masters. There is a good chance that Masters will be taken off the road for an indefinite period of time. There is no specific reason as to why he may be taken off the road, however, it was said that "your first guess would be the correct guess."

Obviously Masters is steroids, that also would be my guess for Mercury. I just don't see habitual recreation drugs being used in Pro Wrestling as they once were, besides marijauna. Steroirds will most likely claim the most people in this testing.

So much for WWE's 'Golden Boy', Chris Masters 'eh? Not surprised the slightest.
-- On Mercury's behalf, I most certainly am. It's a shame too. :roll:

Now the question remains: who's next?

no losses there. Masters is a dud and i've never liked Joey Mercury ever since his days in ROH. i guess it's the curse of having a match with Jeff Hardy and his trainee Krazy K.

when I saw the title I hoped one of the names would be masters...

and about the mercury thing, he looked kindof of drowsy sometimes, you know? maybe he has some drug addiction to cocaine or pot :?

but, this isn't surprising. I bet 95% of the roster takes steroids.

I think Masters has talent, he's often panned by fans though because of his size. Fans have grown so weary of Vince's big man fetish that they don't give big guys an actual chance, had Masters been not as buff as he is, he'd easily be hailed as last year Rookie of the year.

Of course John Cena is safe from being suspended for roids because he has to be the most talented wrestler in the WWE....

Well you don't go to rehab for steroids so I don't think that's why Mercury was sent to rehab.  Masters may use steroids.

Nah...I do not think that is the case.

I have seen several "big man" workers who I thought were of quality... I cannot speak for everyone else, however, in regards to myself, I am not fan of Chris Masters because of his workrate (or lackthere of), not for the reason of size.

Honestly, the only quality matches I have from Chris Masters were one(s) in which his opponent "carried" him. (For example: Chris Masters vs. Shawn Michaels Unforgiven 2005)

By the way, for my vote, Ken Kennedy was last year's rookie of the year.

Masters did steroids? NO WAY!

Mercury kinda looked like he was on marijuana, so that doesn't shock me. What does shock me, is that RVD wasn't caught for that. :|

Marijauna is not a substance that WWE is pursuing in their drug testing, so it's either steroids or something bigger.

Well Jake Roberts was a master at that, he Drank and used drugs more then any other guy of his generation and he wrestled great for years and you would have never known he was high or anything, because he never let it impede his ability to work

It's not which MAJOR superstar gets caught next.... It's which MAJOR superstar will get caught and punished?  I'm fairly certain that Trips won't be getting into any type of trobule from the drug testing.

I don't think he's on steroids, but he did gain 100 lbs from what he was 10 years ago.
